Introduction to Linux - A Hands on Guide

This guide was created as an overview of the Linux Operating System, geared toward new users as an exploration tour and getting started guide, with exercises at the end of each chapter.
For more advanced trainees it can be a desktop reference, and a collection of the base knowledge needed to proceed with system and network administration. This book contains many real life examples derived from the author's experience as a Linux system and network administrator, trainer and consultant. They hope these examples will help you to get a better understanding of the Linux system and that you feel encouraged to try out things on your own.

I have an issue where when I'm uploading files to my samba server which is also my gateway/NAT/firewall I get an error from the Windows client uploading the file: Cannot copy <XXX>: the specified name is no longer available. The server is still up and running at this point as is the service, smbd. I can go back and restart the upload.

This ONLY happens if I am uploading the file to the server from the client and I happen to open Firefox to start browsing. If left uninterrupted, there is no problem whatsoever. I can uploaded hundreds of gigabytes worth of data at 60 megabytes per second. But, if I try to go browse a website while doing so, boom: error.

Any ideas?

EDIT: This does not happen while downloading from the server. Only uploads seem to be affected at this point.
